(Meyers had registered at the Indiana house under "the assumed name of John Cunningham, and to further avoid iden tification had his hair dyed a deep black, its natural oolor being light brown. Meyers has copteesed the murder of Forest Crowley, although placing, the guilt upon a local gambler named Brown Allen. Allen has not yet been arrested, but the police are making ev ery effort to catch hini. ' J. W. Conley, who was yesterday ar rested In Chattanooga, la also impli cated by Meyers’ confeesidn.

U; the suspicion that the young njan-w. the dyed hair was Meyers he was t. lowed by the Covington officers to Cl| clnnatl and Anally located at the ft dlnna hotel. E'L Young ‘Meyers had .evidently been offT* taklrur In the town, for tt was after V o'clock this mornlngMhat he put la his- appearance at the Indiana house. Tho detectives whb were waiting allowed him to go to his room before they made the arrest. Twenty-live dollars was nil the money Meyers had, tout was pro vided with a pistol. At first ho denied his identity, but admitted that he was Meyers whea the officers began to bo through his pock ets. He also denied the killing of Crow ley, saying that he knew all about tt. but was not the murderer. He left At lanta, he claimed, because the men who committed the crime were trying to fasten It upon him. ■Liter on In his confession to Chief of Police Dettch of Cincinnati Meyers im plicated Brown Allen. Allen, he said, had acquired an Influence over him through his sister that he could not re sist. and had used this Influence to force him to lead Crowley Into the trap set fbr his murder and robbery. After the deed warn done Allen gave him half of the money. Meyers said. In explaining Allen’s al iened power over him. that he was In fatuated with Allen’s sister and the two Platted against him. Tho woman, he said, had led him on. until when he found himself In a compromising posi tion with her, her brother suddenly ap peared on the scene, and under threats forced him to become a party to the plot to rob and murder Crowley. Meyers' part was to get Crowley out to the appointed Mice, which he did. and then he claims Allen committed the murder. Meyers will arrive In Atlanta In charge of officciv tomorrow morning, having agreed to return to Georgia without requisition oapena. . ■It was reported here today that an effort wtould be made by friend, of Crowley to take Mevere from the train when It reaches Cobb county anil lynch him.

The case has beetklhe only thing dis cussed bn the .treefa today. This after noon the excitement over the murder waa Stirred to a lively pitch by the ap pearance of the Evening Commercial, which contained a doiible-lea'letl edito rial In almost so many words calling on tho people to lynch Meyers and hi. eon- fed erases. The Crowley murder la the I fourth cohl-tolooded butchery that has I occurred In Atlanta within the' l.i.t three months, and In Indonelng Judge Lynch, the Commercial thinks a des perate remedy is needed.

Further Particulars of the Disastrous Defeat of China’s Fleet. ‘Londbn, Sept. 21.—The Times will puMleh tomorrow the following dis patch from Tien-Tsln, dated Septem ber 21: Wounded officers of tho Chinese fleet cbmflnm the original report of the engagement on Che 17uh instant. They say that he Chinese fleet arrived at Yalu river on the afternoon of the 16th and remained ten miles outside of the mouth of Hie river while transports were unloading. At 11 o’ctock on 'the morning of the 17tih they sighted the smoke of the Japanese fleet, which was approaching tn 'two columns. The Chi nese vessels steunuM out to meet them in tvro columns, converging on the flag ship. The Jaipanee fleet constated of twelve ships, while the Chinese lea l ten ships. The Chinese admiral opened Are at a distance of 6,000 metres, but the firing on both sides fell chart uiftil the opposing lines aamo wl'CWn 5,00 metres of evtc.li other. The Chinese endeavored to come to dose cjpaniors, tout were prevented from aarompllshi.i'g their purpose by the superior speed of the Jti'punso ships, which, keeping for the most part two miles off. matneuvred u'J- mlrubly and made splendid piucUce with the 'long-range quick-firing guns. “The Chinese cruiser Clfln-Yuen, Captain Lui Shang. early in the day closed -with one of the encimie’s ships With full speed. Intending to ram her. Whether rammed or torpedoed, the Japanese Shi 'turned over and tank. Four Japanese vessels t'hon ch>3ed around Che Ohln-Yuen, and she was ripped up toy shots under the water line and went down with alt on toourU, ; Including Purvis, the engineer. Mean while tho 'buttle rased furiously around the flagship Tlns-Yuen and her con sort, the Chen—Yuen. iNiJdholls, u gun nery officer on tohe Ting-Yuen was killed. Tho Japanese ships were diffi cult too identify, tout it is known that the cruiser Yoshlno received some damaging shots alt clbse range, which ertvdloped her In smoke nn\l made her invisible. Some of the Chinese gunnera devoted tohelc attention especially to the Jaipafnese cruiser Naniwu anti succeed ed in sdUing her an lire, but none of the Chinese officers saw her sink. ■'At 5 o’clock the five Japanese ves sels still engaged in the fight 'turned ■and fled. Tho Chinese vessels pursued, but 'Balled to overtake thorn. Next mornng ithe Japanese flotilla returned and torpedoed tohe stranded ships. •Tile casualties on the Chinese fleet were exactly us previously gtaited. The Japanese laraes are uncertain, us all the vessels -were busy ami no one could se the whole fieM of action. On com paring 'teutlmony from various sources It seems certdiln that four Japanese ships were destroyed and the remainder were badly-maimed.” GORIN TRAIN ROBBERS.
